The Way a Town - Built.


Mr. Henry b Earring, the well known
hardware man, has just returned from u
trip to Omaha, md as he took in the
boom of that now famous city, descrip-
ton of the way 1t is done may be of ill.,
terest to our readers Mr. Eariug had
duly registered at his motel and was about
starting out to attend to The business that
had called him there, when he WAS &C
custed by well dressed gentleman who
said: Il believe | have the pleasure ol
addressing Mir Earring, of Peoria?" You
certain ~ have, replied Henry, but do
not recoIlect ever meeting you" Il am
in the real estate business here" returned
the other, land would like TO show YOU
over the city" Il am not here to buy
real estate" said E airing but on another
matter, aud | shall leave for Peoria this
evening" That makes no difference"
said the Omaha man, I'm call for you
this afternoon" So Earring dispatched
his business, ate his dinner and at the
appointed time the Omaha man drove up
in splendid carriage with spanking
team, and for three hours descanted to
Earring on Omaha. He showed him lots,
grew eloquent over the fortunes that had
been made, sketched in dazzling c0lors
the future of the city, and in fact
filled Earring up to the neck with Omaha
As the time drew near to 90 back to the
hotel Earng said, Now my dear sir,
have had a splendid time; but what puz,
zles me is, why have you taken all this
trouble for me2 | am not even pros
pective customer, and | told you so to
start With The Omaha man laughed
and replied That is part of the boom.
Now | have said so much TO you about
Omaha that you will go away so full of it
that you will talk it IN spite of yourself
1t will advertise the city in a way that
we could not do by any other means. ."

TAKEN FROM THE DEPTHS.


In this sad world of OURS
This dreary wilderness of care and pain,
This mystery, this turmoil of unrest,
This rough and stormy pathway to the tomb
Where many tears and buIring shadows fall
How sweet. o Lord. to know that we are thine:
That in thy hand this mighty chaos lies;
That thine the key of this great mystery
We could not bear it else!
For as the years go by
One sorrow makes strange, prepared why
For yet another; one by one our joys
Are wrested from us ere we call them ours,
And sweetest human ties are severed wide,
And sweetest human cares slip from our grasp;
And dear home nests are robbed of all the birds.
And family trees are stripped of flower and leaf;
And many graves lie greenly side by side,
And oceans roll between some we hold DEAR
Till with sad folded hands we sit and say,
How can God have it so?
For human hearts will cry out for their loves,
And human eyes seek dumbly for the smiles
OF angel faces gone.
